I guess it's time to remind ya'll what's what. Red Quilt Maple on Swamp Ash and Birdseye. There. Bam! 
Man, I don't wanna' seem pretentious, but I love it when we all post our basses... I wish we could set up a Gallery kinda thing here on TB or something.
+1 The bling is really starting to pop on this thread with all this quilt and neon and perloid
Yeah, all the new 5-strings are driving me mad. It'll be another year before I can splurge for one.
I've been getting allot of use out of the new Metro bass, but mainly with my GK MB212 rig. Used it for the first time last night with my main bass rig, a Carvin B1500 and a set of Avatar cabinets. It sounded killer! And I've got that Metro playing like butter. Took this last night at The Back Room Blues Bar in Boca Raton.

It's only a matter of time before Mr Jung gets a fit of jealousy and puts Twenty-twos on his CRV!

Hey, I'm home on a Saturday night. I could get used to this
You mean this one? If it were ash it never would have gone bye-bye. That flamed maple board was amzing. It was replaced by the one below, which the stock HCs were replaced with SC's by our resident sadowsky surgeon Vic.
It's a Metro from late 2004 or early 2005. Any further info?
And while we're on the subject of orange Sadowsky basses, Shocking Tangerine would like to put her two cents in:
^^ that's awesome!
Ms BluesyCat, your bass always floors megreat looking instrument!
Thx! A bunch that just popped up floors me!
Your bass has always been my favorite 'fancy schmancy' Sadowsky. That is just about as perfect as you can get for that vibe to me. Really nice!
Blair, we are minority here. Sadowsky got that 'Jazz Bazz on steroids' title (that I don't really understand) and P basses are less common.
Hey guys out there in SAD-LAND I have a stunning bass that I just picked up which is virtually a "clone of a clone" as one Sadowsky owner said when he saw it.
Is it permissable to show you guys what the bass looks like ??
Many of you may not be familiar with these basses.
Check out Andre Lauer- "The Bullet" on youtube live at NAMM 2010 slamming away on one !
This bass is one of the most playable and best sounding instruments I have encountered in somewhile--obviously owing to its Sadowsky strong influence.
TINO employs the Aguilar OB-1, perhaps not as far reaching as other preamps-particularly the famous Sadowsky preamp. My TINO has Nordstrand pickups.
So if it is cool or anyone would like to see the bass I will gladly attempt to upload a pic.
At first glance you all will mistake it for a SADOWSKY :scowl:
